Philadelphia looks for its third straight win over San Francisco on Sunday Night Baseball, and we have you covered with our Giants vs. Phillies player props based on the best MLB odds.

The Philadelphia Phillies (23-11) sit atop the NL East standings after two wins over the San Francisco Giants (15-19) to open their four-game series. Those teams meet again tonight at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, with first pitch set for 7:10 p.m. ET.

The Phillies are -105 underdogs via our best sports betting sites despite entering this game with a four-game win streak, tied for the longest active streak in the National League. They've won two straight by a combined score of 18-6 over the Giants - who now own the NL's third-worst road record (6-12) - to overtake the Atlanta Braves in the NL East standings.

Philadelphia was one of four teams to win by 11-plus runs on Saturday, tied for the most on a single day since 1900, per MLB’s Sarah Langs. Can it score another big win on Sunday as an outright underdog?

Here are our best Giants vs. Phillies player props and MLB picks (odds via our best MLB betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Giants vs. Phillies expert picks

Alec Bohm Under 1.5 total bases ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oddsmakers are seemingly tipping their hands that Bohm is in for a relatively quiet day at the plate. He enters Sunday with a 17-game hitting streak - one shy of tying the Phillies’ franchise record for third basemen in the expansion era - while batting .508 (31-for-61) during the streak with three home runs, 10 doubles, and 22 RBIs.

However, the NL’s leader in batting average (.364) also left yesterday’s game with right hip flexor tightness. While the move may have been precautionary, we are expecting that sort of injury to limit Bohm if he is in the lineup, especially with the cool temperatures that are predicted. 

Best odds: -160 via Betway

Thairo Estrada Over 0.5 runs ⭐⭐⭐⭐

San Francisco has a team total O/U of 3.5 runs with the Over juiced to -140, and Phillies righty Taijuan Walker is making just his second start of the season after allowing six earned runs on eight hits in 6 ⅓ innings in his first start.

Estrada ranks third on the team with a .696 OPS (min. 26 games) and has a four-game hitting streak with two extra-base hits in that span entering tonight. He is 3-for-4 in his career against Walker, and he's slashing .293/.305/.511 this season with 12 of his 13 runs coming against right-handed pitchers.

Best odds: +140 via Betway

Nick Castellanos Over 0.5 RBIs ⭐⭐⭐

Nick Castellanos is batting just .183 with 10 RBIs this season, but the Phillies offense has scored 27 runs during their four-game winning streak, and Castellanos has at least one RBI in two of those four games.

He should be moved up in the lineup with the six-week injury to teammate Trea Turner, and he is one of three current Phillies with multiple hits in five or fewer at-bats against Giants starting pitcher Logan Webb. Castellanos is 3-for-5 with a home run and a .667 wOBA in his career against Webb, which makes his plus-money odds to drive in a run worth a flier as a three-star play.

Best odds: +165 via Betway
